Opinions on this appreciated

The price doesn't look horrendous to me for a dealer. What do you think?

From what I can see looks okay but I'm no expert on 16750's, so don't know about whether it has period correct dial etc.

I said from what I can see, as for a dealer the posted photo's don't give anywhere near a good enough view of the hands, dial, case or bracelet. I could be wrong but it looks like the springbars are quite near the case surface looking at the lugholes.

Pricewise looking at the other items for sale they seem to be top end and that's for a bid rather than buy now. If I were you I'd ask for much clearer photo's to determine whether this is a decent proposition. I'm sure the experts here will be able to give you much better appraisal.

Question #1: are willing to pay the premium for a non date dial?

The seller is incorrect about the dial. It should read "Oyster Perpetual." He is confusing the matte and gold surround marker dials.

It appears to be a nice watch. The seller's claim that they are, "skyrocketing in value" made me chuckle.
